Accordianteater

The Accordianteater is from Lumberjack Folklore. Its “scientific” name is Musicacorupus Botkini.  It makes a sound that starts as a sigh and grows into a wail before dying off. It stays hidden in dark places. It is sometimes heard during the day, but mostly at night. Its body is similar to an accordian and it makes its sound by contracting its body.
